Restore Lyrics

[Verse]
Nobody's growing old together,
We've made it easy just to quit
Love has become a negative percentage,
Why do we bother to commit

[Verse]
We've got a long list of excuses,
Ways we try to justify
Well, I propose to you the truth is,
Marriage does not have to die

[Chorus]
I know you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore

[Verse]
He said with this ring I promise,
And with I do she said forever
But right now if they're being honest
They don't know if they'll stay together

[Verse]
Let's fast forward to the future
After struggling on their own
They finally figured out they needed
Jesus in the middle
Now I'm watching God rebuild their home

[Chorus]
I know you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore

[Bridge]
The enemy tries to come and divide
Trying to get us give up the fight
But darkness will always lose out to light
Cause we've got the power of Christ
On our side

I see you growing old together
I pray I find a love like yours

[Chorus]
So if you're feeling like it's falling apart
And it can't go on anymore
But God is a God who knows how to heal
So just give it up to the Lord
And He will restore
Like it was before
You may have strayed off course
But He will restore

While he may be considered a "new" artist, Fervent Records' newly signed singer-songwriter Chris August is anything but a rookie in the music industry. A native of Dallas, Texas and a self-taught pianist, guitarist and producer, the year August turned 15 was according to the Starry Night Songfacts a "huge turning point" for him. Not only did he become a Christian, but it was also the time period when he began playing, writing, and recording music. After recording, producing, mixing and mastering his first independent album, his work was soon noticed and earned him a recording contract with Geffen Records. After moving to Los Angeles to work on his album, August also began to write, record, and produce for other performers. This included a year-long stint as the keyboard player and opening act for pop singer Ashlee Simpson. The Dallas native then put his refined skill set to work when he co-produced his debut record with acclaimed producer Ed Cash.

While he is not one to shy away from writing about his faith, Chris isn't afraid to embrace relationships and heartache in his songwriting. Chris cites influences such as Stevie Wonder, John Mayer, and Gavin DeGraw who all contributed to the polished pop/rock sound that is sure to resonate with all who listen. Read more on Last.fm.
